I'm making my own office desk, I'm 2m04cm so the height and depth are appropriate.
I've made the desk top from reclaimed floorboards. It's 1 inch thick, the supports underneath are from the same source. It's 19 inch (49cm) wide and 56x75 (142x190cm) in length.
I've had these legs custom made to the height I need. The top plate has 6 counter sunk holes in.
The top and bottom plate are 17.5 inches long, 3 inches wide (7x47cm).
I also have a corner leg.
What I need help with is based on the size of the desk top and legs what's the best way of attaching the legs to the desk top.
Should I : 1)Screw the legs directly into the desk?
2)Screw the legs into the support beams that are approx 20-30cm in from each end(that stops me putting draws underneath)
3)Glue/screw a extra support beam to the very ends of the desk, (the beam would be wider than the legs) to give me 2inch of wood to attach the legs too.
4) Other
Any advice would be much appreciated.
